To honor Paul’s philanthropy, “We’ve done different fundraisers,” says Cody, who has since launched live car events calledFuelFest, which donates a portion of proceeds to ROWW. “We’ve done different things. We used to do these events called Game for Paul where we would do these big game charity fundraisers. Vin was a part of every single one of them.
